learning to draw, drawing one pokemon a day (and maybe some extra)
Taking a couple days off because my wife left and took the kids (she went to visit her family and filled the house with bagels and cupcakes before she left) and I’m sad

Art resumes tomorrow!!

Day 32 of drawing a pokemon a day - Nidoran (purple)

I couldn’t bring myself to change the art style for such a similar line so I’m riding with it.

Day 30 of drawing a pokemon a day - Nidorina!

Yesterday’s art style seemed to really hit so I was stoked to do this one. Brightened up the linework.

Day 29 of drawing a pokemon a day - Nidoran (f)

I really locked in on this one. I used some old sugimori art as a reference for the pose and then did my thing

Day 28 of drawing a pokemon a day - sandslash

Not as thrilled with this one but learned a lot about using layers to make shading easier.

Day 27 of learning to draw and drawing a pokemon a day - sandshrew

Missed opportunity not putting him in sand? No, he yearns for the grass.

Did not animate this one, but starting to get a lot more comfy in procreate

Day 25 of learning to draw and drawing a pokemon a day - pikachu

I kicked it up a notch and animated this one. Pikachu is a special pokemon, had to do a special post. Pretty proud for my first time animating.

Day 23 of learning to draw and drawing a pokemon a day - ekans

So it turns out that procreate is actually hard, I spent the last 3 weeks in CSP and there’s so many gestures in procreate that I struggled. Going to spend the next few days getting used to it.

Taking a break tonight - my iPad came so Ekans will be done in procreate tomorrow! Have to get it all set up

Day 29 of learning to draw and drawing a pokemon a day - raticate!

Now I’ve got a pair of doofy looking pokemon, would make an excellent Legally Distinct Animation Pair

Day 19 of learning to draw and drawing a pokemon a day - rattata

I hated every pose I did so I drew him as legally distinct Mickey Mouse lol

Day 18 of learning to draw and posting a pokemon a day - Pidgeot!

I was a little more faithful to the sugimori posing, but still kept it varied enough. I experimented with using selections to create shadows rather than winging it with the brush and it seemed to help.

Day 17 of learning to draw and drawing pokemon - Pidgeotto!

Honestly this one was also rushed through, I just want to play some video games and unwind tonight. I’m not happy with the shading at all.

Day 16 of learning to draw and drawing a pokemon each day - Pidgey!

I had to rush this one ngl so I’m not happy on the shading, but I used a real bird picture for reference and the vision is there!

Day 15 of learning to draw with pokemon to keep the robots away - beedrill!

I went for a sunset vibe for the background, flying through the sky. Was a big fan of this cel shaded style

Day 13 (I’m caught up!) of learning to draw to fight the robots in my feeds, Weedle!

Very 2000s newgrounds/addictinggames/miniclip, he’s blushing because he’s a little shy.

Learning to draw and posting pokemon every day while I do it to rebel against the data farms, day 7-9: blastoise did the most here

Day 4-6 of me learning to draw to fight the robots in my feed - I did Charmander to Charizard these days. Charizard was when I felt like I started to hit a groove with shading and shape, Charmander I think had the best flame.
